Notes from the Winemaker:
In the glass:
Bright and golden in color.
On the nose:
The attractive and expressive nose evokes flavors of ripe red blackcurrants, wheat, dried fruits
and gingerbread. A promise-filled introduction of outstanding concentrated yet refreshing gourmet
scents.
On the palate:
The palate is dominated by refreshing mineral notes combined with a warm and consistent flavour echoing the wine's richness and plumpness. From under a rich expression of ripe and dried fruit, a gentle persistent freshness comes through. A subtle and beautifully crafted framework which is the signature of Gosset champagnes.
Food Pairing:
Undoubtedly a wine for the table, a perfect match with sweet and subtly spiced dishes of cooked fruit, sweet and sour, tajines, etc. This Champagne is a dual personality that gladly complements elaborate dishes with simplicity as by nature it is both tender and tense and sophisticated and confident.
93 Points - Wine Spectator Magazine:
"A spine of chiseled acidity structures this vivid, creamy Champagne, which has a minerally underpinning of smoke and brine and flavors of Asian pear, baked pineapple, lemon curd, toasted brioche and roasted almond. Should pair well with grilled fish. Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier. Drink now through 2027. 1,750 cases imported." - AN (Nov 2022)
92 Points - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate:
"Aromas of crips orchard fruit, pear and apricot, mingled with hints of fresh bread and pastry, introduce the latest release of Gosset's NV Brut Grande Réserve, a medium to full-bodied, fleshy but incisive wine that's deceptively generous but also structured to reward some bottle age." - WK (Sep 2021)
92 Points - Wine Enthusiast Magazine:
" The nonvintage Champagne cuvée from Gosset is very much in the house style: crisp and without malolactic fermentation. Ripe fruits balance the crispness while some bottle age has allowed the acidity to soften. This is a very fine wine that is ready to drink." - RV (Dec 2022)

"
This is very fresh and has attractively flavorful, punchy fruit presence, in a very pure mode. Strawberries and grapefruit and some pastry and spiced-biscuit to close. Drink now." (Jul 2019)

90 Points - Jeb Dunnuck:
"The NV Grande Reserve Brut, which is 45% Chardonnay, 45% Pinot Noir, and the rest Pinot Meunier and 8 g/l dosage, is lifted with tropical and citrus fruit including lychee, orange blossom, and lime. Juicy and medium-bodied, with tangerine and mango, it is a solid entry to the range. Drink 2022-2028." (Nov 2022)
